Daily business problems
Where manual records usually break down
- Similar parts are easily confused when brand, model, size and part type are not organised.
- A large catalogue hides low stock, duplicate entries and slow-moving parts.
- Mechanics and resellers may request quotations, wholesale prices or credit terms.

01
Catalogue and selling rules
List the product categories and the exact size, colour, brand, model or style options that must remain separate in stock.
02
Opening stock and suppliers
Use a recent stock count and current supplier balances. Avoid importing estimated quantities that will immediately weaken the reports.
03
Customers and pricing
Identify retail, wholesale and quotation customers, then confirm who may buy on credit and how balances will be followed.
04
Staff access and closing reports
Create separate staff users, assign only the required permissions and agree on the reports used to close or hand over each day.
Fit boundary
